You know, being a junk ball thrower is like a good thing.

Dan, I think you're doing a thing of like generations past where like bad meant good, but good meant bad.

I will say, yeah, Aaron Bummer, who gave up two runs last night.

That's a bummer.

But I will say, being a junk ball thrower, not necessarily a good thing.

If a guy's got a good fastball, you tell him to stay away from the junk because he throws four or five different pitches.

Now that's where you could be using junk in a positive connotation, which is exactly what you would do with junk.

But Zaz, in the playoffs, you've got to suck it up.

Everybody's expecting you to watch the games and be ready and knowledgeable about these games.

No, sucking it up is going down to the leather couch and sitting your ass there and watching all the games.

I need a new couch.

You can rent a couch.

So what's happening?

You can't get sticky.

They can't get a little sticky.

Dan, I did make, because you mentioned junk, you besmirched the word junk.

I made a top five ways the word junk is used positively.

I mean, maybe it is in here.

You don't know that.

Number five, junk ball pitcher.
